AndSoOn Nov 2014
C’était encore un de ces mois incertains, indécis, entre l’hiver et le printemps. Comme s’ils avaient choisi de nous laisser dans ce froid fatiguant , tout en nous permettant de redécouvrir les couleurs de la nature, Mars, et peut-être Avril, étaient mes mois favoris. Par ma fenêtre, je voyais la nuit endormir en douceur le monde extérieur. C’était encore tôt. L’été s’approchait et la nuit se faisait de plus en plus tardive. Quelques fois, j’hésitais : étais-ce un supplice ou un bonheur ?  La nuit était pour moi un cocon où le froid, les cris et les colères n’étaient pas présents. Et soudain, le vent soufflait dans le jardin, forçant le bois de mes murs à résister, comme pour repousser cet air presque violent. Je souris encore en entendant le craquement du bois contre le vent. J’avais ce sentiment de paix. Peut-être était-ce moi qui redécouvrait les petits plaisirs de la vie ou tout simplement le bois qui me montrait son soutien et sa présence par un petit chuchotement comme un signe de vie. Dans ces moments, je m’enterrais dans mes duvets d’hiver que Maman allait bientôt remplacer par d’autres moins chauds. Que je détestais ces duvets si froids, si plats et si peu accueillants. Mais pendant le mois de mars, ou le mois d’avril, je pouvais encore me blottir dans les gros bras de ma couette. La solitude en devenait moins pesante. Il y avait moi, le bois, le vent, mon duvet.

Ce que je préférais c’était les orages. En plus du vent, les murs de ma chambre devaient combattre la pluie et le tonnerre. Ce concert de bruits naturels était un de mes meilleurs somnifères. Ma chambre était sous les toits. Elle l’est encore. Allongée sur mon lit, je me laissais bercer par la fatigue, perdant mon regard de plus en plus lourd dans les lattes du plafond. Le bruit de la pluie résonnait si délicieusement dans le cocon que je m’étais construit. La pluie sonne encore comme autrefois : un bruit de clavier ou de triangle. C’était un bruit exquis, rare et faible. Elle était là la beauté de ce son. Sa faiblesse le rendait indispensable. Les instruments à vent s’ajoutaient avec magie, suivis des percussions tremblantes créées par le tonnerre. Et l’orchestre devenait apaisant. Je pouvais sentir la pluie s’infiltrer entre les tuiles. Je l’entendais glisser comme au ralentit jusqu’à ce qu’une goutte imaginaire tombe sur mon visage.

Je n’arrivais jamais à complètement apprécier ces moments. J’avais tant envie qu’ils durent à jamais que je résistais au sommeil jusqu’à en souffrir. La fatigue avait cette force que la pluie et le vent ne possédaient pas. Elle pouvait me rendre si lourde et si crispée. En m’en souvenant, je la trouve en quelques points perverse. Elle est à la fois celle qui vous endort et celle qui vous maintient éveillé. Je ne pouvais que garder les yeux ouverts tellement l’envie d’écouter ces sons merveilleux m’obsédait. Mon corps se fatiguait à défaut de pouvoir se crisper. Et je devais abandonner, dans l’espoir que le beau temps ne s’attarde pas. Malgré cela, je pouvais encore rester là, à peine présente, perdue entre la léthargie de mon corps et la vivacité de mon esprit. Je pouvais imaginer avoir les yeux ouverts, les oreilles attentives. Enfin, la paix reprenait le dessus.
Inspired by Proust
Words do not a writer make
Nor poems nouns or prose
But the heart that breaks for breaking sake
Beyond calling Rose a rose

It's not the nouns or adjectives
Or strings of sappy lines
It's seeing love where nothing lives
And seeing darkness shine

A writer sees beyond the words
But sees the great divide
Between what heart says and what is heard
Never satisfied

A writer does not fill the page
With words that others need
But the page the page is the stage
Where their emotion bleeds

Of the things I think a writer holds
You may disagree
But if your heart is moved to words so bold
A writer you may be
I
Was the one
Who strived until dim
Just to hide my story
Still, I know the pain won’t vanish

I
Was the one
Who believed in him
Just to make him happy
Still, I know the pain won’t vanish

Let me count
All the days
Monday until Saturday
They almost completed my week
Tuesday was an exception

Let me count
All the ways
My mind lost from yesterday
Vague scenes from a dream so unique
To me you are perfection

Your arms
Yes, in your arms
Is where I'd like to stay
Someday with gay
But I know that won’t happen - anymore

As long as words are here
As long as they live
Softly grazing on grass like a deer
I will also continue to live

If in case they are stuck-up
Silently escaping my mind
A remedy must be in a cup
As to a place I can easily find

Because that is me
Childishly watching myself bleed
Delirious at my own sullen right knee
Enveloped by the cut from a pointed seed

I can still remember the day we first met
That memory still lingers and was well kept
Everytime you come near, my world feels like spinning
This heartbeat is all I can hear – crying, screaming, humming, and singing

I have not expected this to happen or the things to be like this
Maybe I have already fallen and now I know the word ‘bliss’
I wish I could tell how I really feel
That for you I fell and gave me the strength to move a hill

I hope that I may have enough courage
To let the world we live know
I have wished upon a shooting star and read every book’s last page
Just to teach myself how

I guess all I can do is watch you walk and move every night and day
For I am not brave enough to jump a full height
I made flimsy scribbles on this page with gay
This poem I made for you will now take its first flight

*These little creatures come to life everytime we are together.*
To the one
Day I met you
For now it is gone

To the first
Feeling I’ve had
Eventually burst

To the day
Our eyes locked up
This feeling so gay

To the air
We both breathed in
For now this ain’t fair

As I lay
All of these things
In a white casket
On a fine funny day
With my hand holding a basket
Of flowers that bloom only on May

I found this flower
This one, so puny
I took it for its beauty
Taught me about the power
Of something not to be
Taken only for granted
And dump if not wanted

And now
As I silently wave
And say goodbye
To the one
To the first
To the day*

I wish you
All the happiness
To fight that sadness
Blending in your hue

It’s not with your lustrous hair
That makes me feel
It’s not with your luscious words
That make me thrill
I really can’t find it as of now
But I know where and how

For the days that passed
I can remember some memoirs that’ll last
Framing each special day
With you I’ll always gay

Now that the time has come for me
Though how hard it can be
I will really make it plain sure
That my love for you is clean and pure

How far would I go to love you?
How many times would I dive in River Bayou.
Loving you this way seems isn't enough
I longed for you to give me a chance, ohh...


Would my love be enough for you?
Or you'll disregard me for what I have at hand?
Would you leave me in shades of black or blue.
My love is bare because I care, my love


Refrain:
Would you give me a little bit of love in advance?
Would you give me a chance to see you stay.
So much as I breathe your essence like air
I was so tired even though I tried my very best
Sometimes I feel like giving-up,
But resigning wouldn't do anything to stop
This heart that beats only for you somehow ask
How far would I go to love you?


I know I don't have everything
For I survive with just some little things,
Enough for me to live this kind of life
And even my choices are full of strife

Refrain:
Would you give me a little bit of love in advance?
Would you give me a chance to see you stay.
So much as I breathe your essence like air
I was so tired even though I tried my very best
Sometimes I feel like giving-up,
But resigning wouldn't do anything to stop
This heart that beats only for you somehow ask
How far would I go to love you?

This is a collaboration with Pax. I made some revisions in some lines of the poem to fit with the musical lines. Here's the link to the music video I made:
